Does this hinge have a name?

From a old piece of furniture. Kinda strange - the pivot is just a rivet, and it's mortised into a slot in the cabinet such that the pivot (but nothing else) is visible from the front with the door closed. The narrow bearing surface has worn after many years, so I'd like to replace the hinge, but can't find anything that looks remotely similar. Does this hinge have a name?

I cannot find an exact match, but it's some kind of knife hinge with an overlay.

Knife hinges. You don't see them much any more; I think euro-style hinges made them obsolete.

I think one of the first few hinges on this page might be your hinge: http://www.hardwaresource.com/hinges...s+for+Cabinets

3/8 overlay Knife hinge. I hate to admit it, but that is what we were using on cabinets when I started until the euros showed up like Dave said. Dang, I'm old ain't I?

Grumble, grumble, grumble........

Thanks, guys! I looked at tons of pictures of hinges, but never saw that one - having a name for it helps tremendously.

check the restoration hardware catalogs. I know I have seen an assortment of those knife hinges somewhere. Thinking. . . .
